This property stays constant after the CMC, or critical micelle concentration, is reached, which comes after a certain amount of surfactants have been added to a solution. Laplace's Law describes why this property is responsible for the nearly spherical form taken on by bubbles and drops of water. This property occurs due to certain molecules of a liquid not being surrounded by attractive charges, leading to stronger cohesion for those molecules. For 10 points, name this property of liquids that is responsible for the ability of water striders to move atop water.
